In the blink of an eye, it was winter again. Xu Ziling stood at the end of the runway of the military factory airport. Seeing the yellow grassland around him, he felt emotion.

Time flies very quickly, and five months have passed in a blink of an eye.

In the past few months, many things have happened around you: the military factory successfully introduced allies, the establishment of technical exchange agencies, the modification of carrier-based aircraft was completed, the design and development of heavy transport aircraft were successful and the establishment of a complete production line was established, and the successful birth of the prototype of the unmanned attack aircraft was born.

In terms of allies, Mr. Yang finally introduced the two companies to agree to all the conditions proposed by the military factory and became a shareholder of the military factory.

The owner status of these two companies is comparable to that of the Yang family, but one is in the military and the other is in the political circle.

Xu Ziling did not participate in the negotiations on related matters. First, he did not like to contact these things, and second, he did not have time.

It was when the last two companies sent out management personnel that the core figure of the military factory emerged and met.

It’s not his overseas Chinese relationship, but mainly because he has been busy with too many things in the past few months, especially heavy transport aircraft and drone projects.

Both projects are new, and some of the technologies are brand new, and the researchers below cannot understand them at all at once. They need to come in person.

So in the past few months, he has been traveling back and forth between the military factory and the University of Science and Technology of China.

"What? Not sure?"

A voice interrupted Xu Ziling's feelings.

After several months of hard work, the prototype of the stealth drone finally appeared, and today is its first flight experiment, so many people, including Xu Ziling, came to the large airport of the military factory to wait for the results of this test flight.

The person who spoke was a representative sent by one of the newly joined allies.

The management of the military factory is deeply influenced by Xu Ziling, the boss behind the scenes, and they all tend to be younger. In terms of economy and some aspects, no matter who participates, it is equivalent to having a chicken that can lay golden eggs.

Therefore, these two allies cannot ignore this matter. When they saw the younger management of the military factory, they all sent the best young people from the younger generation in their families to come.

Hearing the sound, Xu Ziling turned around and looked at the person who was talking and smiled.

The person in front of me was in his thirties, named Liu Long, and his family was in the military like the Yang family. An old man in the family was also a colleague of Mr. Yang. They were in the same army when they were young, and they were old friends on the same front until now.

Perhaps birds of a feather flocked. Although Liu Long's family background was extraordinary, he had been with him many times in several months. He felt that he was like Yang Kaiming, and he did not look arrogant. On the contrary, he was very generous. After work, he could chat with the most ordinary security personnel in the military factory.

"I didn't think about this matter. I just saw that the grass was yellow and the special code had passed for a few months. I didn't take a few days to accompany my girlfriend. Isn't it a very dereliction of duty?"

Everyone present was concerned about the first flight of the drone, but Xu Ziling was not worried about messing up because of the scan of the lion. Seeing that everyone was not talking much, it was a bit boring, so he started a little joke.

"Damn, you are the least qualified to say this. Yesterday, when I got off work, I watched you and Ruolan kiss me and mine go back together."

This time, the person who spoke was from another ally, named Nie Yunjie.

It would never be a waste of time to become a top family in the domestic political circle. Therefore, when choosing representatives of the garrison factory, I must have learned in detail about the young management teams of Xu Ziling and others. Therefore, Nie Yunjie, who was sent here, was also similar to Liu Long in terms of personality and behavior.

In the past few months, they have not been together with Xu Ziling, but they are in the same place and often meet each other and understand each other's personalities. Now they don't have much concern about speaking.

"Ha ha……"

There were many people present, not only all the senior management of the military factory came, but also Mr. Huang, Mr. Li, and Yang Haisheng.

They also heard the conversation between Xu Ziling and Liu Long, and when they heard Nie Yunjie's rebuttal, they couldn't help laughing.

Everyone's kind-hearted ridicule reminded Xu Ziling that he has indeed been working with Yang Ruolan every day these days and getting off work, so he is really not qualified to say such things.

He touched his nose awkwardly and quibbled:

"I mean I haven't been shopping with her for a long time. Are you wrong?"

“…”

The little laughter suddenly opened up the dull atmosphere before. Everyone was no longer silent as before, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

The preparations are handled by special personnel. Those who can stand here only need to see the results. So when we arrived at the airport, we did not enter the control hall as soon as possible, but walked around the airport runway while waiting for the preparations to be completed.

"The 'Shadow Dragon 1' is ready and starts to leave the hangar and prepare to enter the runway."

Not long after, the report from the staff below came from the walkie-talkie on Xu Ziling's hand.

"Shadow Dragon" is the code name for the UAV, while "No. 1" represents the prototype.

The intercom is loud, and everyone has heard the report.

"Hehe... It seems I don't need to say anything. Please enter the control hall, the first flight will be carried out soon."

Seeing everyone pointing their eyes at the walkie-talkie in his hand, Xu Ziling smiled at everyone and said.

"Walk!"

He didn't need to say hello. Mr. Huang, Mr. Li, Yang Haisheng and others who could not wait had already taken action and walked towards the terminal building.

Before a group of people could reach the terminal, the "Shadow Dragon One" pulled by a tractor from the hangar on one side happened to meet them.

Although the prototype has been out for a while, when everyone saw this dark gray unmanned fighter again, everyone was still proud and shocked.

The "Shadow Dragon" adopts a flying wing-free tail layout, which is the same as other countries in this regard, but is slightly different in small places.

Its entire fuselage is thirteen meters long, but its wings are nearly fifteen meters long. The fuselage is made of a new titanium alloy in one go, and the exterior coating is a new nano-stealing material. While absorbing radar scanning signals well, it can also have a real stealth effect for a certain period of time: disappearing from the naked eye.

In terms of power, a high-performance engine optimized from the "Global Hawk" power is used, and it uses a dual-engine, which allows the aircraft to use only a single engine when cruising at low altitude, while at high altitudes can run two engines at the same time, easily breaking through Mach 5.

Because the fuselage is made of new alloys, the thrust of a single-engine power can also allow the aircraft to easily cross the limit of the flight of aircraft at low altitudes that must not exceed Mach 0.9 at low altitudes, reaching a speed of Mach 1.5.

In terms of communication, it uses dual channels of satellite and "Hawkeye" radar.

Two methods are adopted, because both solutions have certain advantages and disadvantages, and the combination of the two is perfect.

Military factories do not have their own satellites, and they are nominally private enterprises. However, when the aircraft is manufactured, they must be sold to the state, and can only be used to communicate with the state's military satellites, which destined to be troubles in this regard.

Fortunately, under the operation of Mr. Huang, Mr. Li, and Liu Long, we negotiated relevant matters with the military, which allowed the project to continue.

One of the main functions of a drone is to go deep behind enemy lines, so its range is destined to be very long. The drone is different from other fighter jets because it is not controlled by the aircraft and needs to be achieved through satellite command, so it is not possible to achieve the conditions by itself.

In this way, the orbital satellite needs to be able to contact the plane at all times to achieve this goal. Otherwise, before flying above others' heads, the plane will be controlled, which will be a tragedy.

However, although my country has many satellites, there are not many military-use orbital communication satellites. Therefore, it is definitely not possible to travel around the world by relying on one satellite.

So when Xu Ziling considered these things, he also used the communication method of the "Hawkeye" radar. Although the distance of a single set of "Hawkeye" is not very far, as long as he follows a large electronic reconnaissance aircraft like the RC-135 and cooperates with a changing orbit satellite, it will be fine to circle the earth.

As for remote remote control and avionics systems, all software was created by Lion. He referred to some large-scale flight games and made the simplest and most convenient design of this operation interface, so that operators can familiarize themselves with the entire system without much time and operate the drone through the remote control terminal.

Also, in terms of weapon assembly, due to the stealth requirements of drones, its ammunition cannot be exposed on the outside hanging points like ordinary fighters, but is hidden inside the aircraft assistant.

Due to the use of the "Hawkeye" system, the huge radar systems used on other aircraft can be completely abandoned on drones, which makes it a considerable amount of space in the fuselage.

Xu Ziling used this space and, in addition to increasing the fuel storage space, completely used weapons assembly.
